The People Plan
The People Plan 2020/21 – action for us all sets out practical actions for employers and systems, as well as the actions that NHS England and NHS Improvement and Health Education England will take, over the remainder of 2020/21. It includes specific commitments around:
- Looking after our people – with quality health and wellbeing support for everyone
- Belonging in the NHS – with a particular focus on tackling the discrimination that some staff face
- New ways of working and delivering care – making effective use of the full range of our people’s skills and experience
- Growing for the future – how we recruit and keep our people, and welcome back colleagues who want to return
We have developed a plan in line with the actions outlined within the national people plan to address workforce challenges locally;
Our system ambition is: Suffolk & North East Essex to be the Best Health and Care system to work in and with by 2025

reconfiguration & transformation
The ‘How do we Heal? Our Workforce’ event on Wednesday 2 June 2021 considered issues for our health and care workforce as we move out of the Covid-19 pandemic, focussing on three main themes: WHY we need to heal, HOW we can heal, and WHAT we can do moving forward, followed by a panel discussion.
This presentation sets out the local plan for Suffolk and North East Essex to meet the nursing and midwifery workforce requirements to deliver the changes in the National 50k Nurse Manifesto plan.
We Can Do Together is a partnership of health and care organisations in Suffolk and North East Essex, working in collaboration to develop a strong multidisciplinary workforce that can deliver the best care possible to patients in their community.
We aim to attract people, especially those starting out in the world of work, into a career in health and care to help to shape sector leaders for the future – as well as working to connect existing staff with career support and opportunities for further development
